Evening Roundup: Ralphs will no longer double

There’s some sobering news at Slickdeals: Ralphs will no longer double coupons or offer quarterly Ralphs Rewards as of April 1, 2012. There should be more information in the new weekly ad that comes in your mail tomorrow. I’ll also have more thoughts for you on that after I see exactly what the ad says.

Tomorrow (3/20), Amazon Local will offer a $10 Amazon gift certificate for just $5. There’s pretty much no one who can pass up that deal, right? (Via Southern Cali Saver.)

If you haven’t used them yet, hang on to the $1/2 Mars candy coupons that came in this past weekend’s Red Plum insert – next week, you’ll be able to use them in a moneymaker deal at CVS. They’ll be on sale for 2/$1 and giving a $1 ECB, limit 2. So, use 2 coupons, pay $0, and get $2 back via ECB! (Via Living Rich with Coupons.)

Thank you for the heads up. In today’s ad, there is a whole page explaining the rewards. Basically, they are changing to fuel rewards (discounts at Ralphs Fuel Centers and participating Shells), which I won’t use. To continue receiving the quarterly rewards, you need to get their Visa card (which I won’t do). As you mentioned, double coupons ends at the end of this month. I will be doing some creative shopping this weekend so I can get doubles on several coupons.
